My name is Rich Kempa I started this company in 1989. Prior to this I was working as a design draftsmen in many fields including Architecture, electric, plumbing, heating ventilating and air conditioning. I built my first house in 1985 and lived there 15 years until my family outgrew it.Was doing a lot of remodeling in my spare time and was ready to take it on full time. I really do enjoy the work and love to see the finished product. We have finished over 150 basements since then and still counting. Please contact me for a long list of referrals.

Easter is one of the best-known and trusted fence, deck and renovation companies in the Midwest. Committed to “doing what’s right,” they are your good neighbor. The Easter Family guarantee is – “Even if it is the first job Dad did in 1957, if we didn’t do it right or didn’t do what we said, we’ll fix it for free.

"The negotiated price was based on fencing our back yard in phases, as we are a newly-constructed home and needed excavation work to be completed and did not want to have a fully installed fence that could get damaged in the process. We made it clear that we were on the timeline of the builder and did not have a firm completion date. The sales person agreed to the terms. We even told the sales person that when the property was able to be fenced in the second phase, that he could order the material at that time as to not have inventory sitting. He said that the fence material would not be sitting long as he had anther buyer serious about the same fence. The back property line was fenced. Fast forward 4 months later and a representative of this company shows up unannounced demanding that we finish the fencing project. He even started to measure the property line! When we reiterated to him that we had an open finish timeline until we could get the property re-graded and it was based on when the builder could get this completed; he angrily drove off and told the owner that we are not finishing this project! We then get a rather nasty email from the VP demanding final payment after he raised the cost of the project against the negotiated price because only the back line was fenced at this time. He also said that he was stuck with the remaining material even though he chose to go forward and order in bulk knowing that this fence was to be completed in phases. We never even received a phone call from this company expressing concerns, nor did we receive any voice mails. I am not sure what the message relayed back to the company owner was from the representative that came to our house by surprise; but clearly it wasn't what we told him as we never said that we were stopping this project. At the time of the quote, our other three neighbors decided to go with another vendor instead of Easter fence. We wish we did as well! Lesson learned!"

Guest house building services FAQs

In most states, yes—you can build a guest house, but every city or county sets its own zoning rules and building codes. Before breaking ground, check local ordinances, confirm lot setbacks, and secure the right permits. A local contractor or design-build firm can walk you through the paperwork and site requirements so your project starts on solid legal footing.

Yes—homeowners often tap a few different financing tools. A home-equity line of credit (HELOC) lets you borrow against your equity as you need funds. If you prefer a lump sum tied directly to the project, a short-term construction loan can roll into a second mortgage once the build is complete. Cash-out refinancing is another option: you replace your current mortgage with a larger one and use the difference to cover construction costs.

When you build a guest house, you’re creating a separate structure for hosting visitors without the full amenities needed for permanent living. An accessory dwelling unit, however, includes a complete kitchen and bathroom, meeting building codes for a long-term residence. This key difference makes an ADU ideal for long-term occupancy or rental income, adding enduring value to your property.

How many rooms you need depends on how you plan to use the space. Aim for one bedroom per every one or two occupants to make sure everyone has enough privacy and comfort. Added living and dining areas give you extra functionality, especially for rental use or long-term stays.

Most homeowners pick somewhere between 600 and 1,500 square feet to fit all the essentials. Make sure your design supports one to two occupants per bedroom and includes enough common areas for comfortable daily living. A well-proportioned layout boosts both functionality and property value.

No—a guest house isn’t just a bump-out on your main home. A bump-out is a small extension within an existing room for extra seating or storage. In contrast, you build a guest house as a standalone building with its own foundation and amenities, giving you a fully separate living area that can boost your property’s versatility and value.
